Lyrics
words to study
Jesse James, we understand
Has killed him many a man
He robbed the Union trains
He stole from the rich
He gave to the poor
He had a hand and a heart and a brain
Well it was on Saturday night
The stars were shining bright
They robbed the Glendale train
And the people they did say
For many miles away
It was those outlaws Frank and Jesse James
Now Jesse had a wife
Lived a lady all her life
Her children they were brave
Ah, but history does record
That Bob and Charlie Ford
Have laid poor Jesse in his grave
Well it was Bob and Charlie Ford
Those dirty little cowards
